The tenant, Richmond Wight Estates offer three types of lodges for purchase; premium, deluxe and superior.

This purpose built holiday park is made up of an historic main building split into 17 apartments, alongside 33 new individual lodges and is located in the quiet of the South Devonshire countryside. The rent is reviewed annually linked to RPI (1% floor and 5% cap).

A freehold property comprising a purpose built Health, Fitness and Racquets club, let in its entirety to David Lloyd Clubs for a lease term of 25 years at purchase date on a Full Repairing and Insuring lease with no breaks. The rent is reviewed every five years with a fixed 3% per annum compound.

A purpose built 80 bedroom hotel, located in Great Yarmouth and leased to Premier Inn, with five yearly inflation linked uplifts. Purchased for £9 million with a net initial yield of 4.7% and a lease term at purchase of 23 years.
